It's so nice that you and your husband exercise together. Being married, it continues to reinforce your bond for each other.

You are friggin nutso! Besides the cold plunge, it sounds good. My plan is to do gym work & to move move move, keep it moving the whole yr before in every kind of weather.

Monday, January 29th: Cold plunges seem to be a little extreme to me, but you do what you got to do. Here's wishing you every success! Happy Trails!

I agree, they are definitely not necessary! Just something I’ve decided to do. Thank you 😊

Good for you guys!!! Keep it going!!! You are ahead of most who start the trail.

You're tougher that me doing that cold plunge but one of my rules of life is it's better to sweat than shiver.

The hardest part is convincing yourself to get in. I definitely like to be warm too!

I so like your cold plunge routine. I do cold showers daily.

You're doing all of the right stuff. The only thing that I would try to add is to find a way to try to get in 4 sessions of at least 45 minutes of zone two training each week. I think you will find it relatively easy, but it does wonders for cardio and your ability to be able to go all day. Zone 2 is relatively easy, so you can do other things like read and so on.

It'll be great to see how this training translates to your thru-hike. Please remember to do a video and report back... maybe after 2-4 weeks? Also, regarding injury prevention, I'd love to recommend a video I posted this week and how I've been able to be injury-free for 23-years. Hint: it's not about stretching or strengthening.

Great video! I'm retired, so I can do crazy training things like go hike the hills of Greece for the month of February in preparation for my NOBO, which starts on March 15 😊

I think you’re going to do great on the trail Molly! All your training will surely pay off. Looking forward to following along with you. I heard you say that you lived in California for a while. Are you a native Oregonian?

@mollyroseoutdoors 5 ай бұрын

Thank you! I’ve lived in Oregon all my life, except for about two years when I lived in California.

My friend did the AT and his training was he wore a small backpack all day long with a bag of sand in it. Every week he would add alittle more sand till he got to 35lbs. When he got on the trail he strong. He did the trail in just under 4 months. What do you think of that training?

That’s awesome! I think I whatever training someone is able to be consistent with is good!
